Amplification of EGFR T790M causes resistance to an irreversible EGFR inhibitor

Explore this paper's citation graph

Summary

It is shown that resistance to PF00299804 arises, at least in part, through selection of a pre-existing EGFR T790M-amplified clone both in vitro and using a xenograft model in vivo and can be used to guide studies of patient tumor specimens from ongoing clinical trials of irreversible EGFR kinase inhibitors.
